Sehoon Yoon opened from early-position and got called by Phuong in late-position, Maris on the button, and Lyu in the big-blind. On a K♥ 9♣ T♠ flop, Yoon continued with a 2,500 bet and only Phuong called.

The turn brought 4♦ and Yoon continued his aggression with a 4,000 bet. Phuong called again. The 8♠ on the river did not scare Yoon and he once more went for a bet, equaling 9,000 chips. Phuong rarely likes to fold, so he first threw in the 9,000 chips, then he threw his cards into the much after Yoon showed. K♦ Q♦

The action started with Sehoon Yoon opening from early-position to 900. Nguyen Tan Phuong called from late-position, same went for Jack Maris in the small-blind and Sung Min Lee in the big-blind.

The flop came down 3♦ 3♥ 3♠ and the open raiser continued with a 1,500 bet which only got called by Maris. The 3♣ turn gave both players quads. Maris checked and Yoon fired again, this time for 3,000. Maris called and the river brought the 9♥ . Maris checked and Yoon gave up as it seemed likely that unlike Yoon, Maris was holding an ace. And indeed he did as he tabled A♦ J♥ .
